House Cat
House Cat is a classy American pilsner at 5.2% ABV, poured on draft only. Bright floral and zesty citrus aromas come first, with subtle bready malt underneath and a crisp finish. It belongs to Rhinegeist's year-round lineup, brewed in Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine, in a plant that predates Prohibition.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for House Cat
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
